interesting tests...

Old-Young IAT:
"Your data suggest a slight automatic preference for Young relative to Old"

Gender-Science IAT:
"Your data suggest little or no association between science and Female relative to Male"
~~ I am a computer science major ;P ... although the ratio of female to male in that field is very slim

Asian American-European American IAT
"Your data suggest a strong automatic assocation between European American and American"
~~ Err... can't help it, american media mostly show caucasians

Fat People-Thin People IAT
"Your data suggest little or no automatic preference for FAT PEOPLE relative to THIN PEOPLE"

Your data suggest little to no automatic preference between Straight People and Gay People.
Your data suggest little or no association between science and Female relative to Male.

Right...

Your data suggest a strong automatic preference for Thin People compared to Fat People.

This can be explained by the fact that at 6'1" and 140lbs I'm afraid fat people will crush me!

Your data suggest a strong automatic preference for Straight People compared to Gay People.

Interesting considering I have multiple long term gay friends and I wouldn't say I'm 100% straight myself.

what a smart way to make a test though. i think it could've been done a bit better, but a very smart concept, nonetheless. very cool.
